Abstract: Remote sensing techniques play a central role in our daily life, from underpinning weather forecast, to monitoring ground settlement, bushfires, floods and earthquakes, and to assessing global climate change. Senior research scientist Dr Scott Hensley from the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) will introduce a range of exciting NASA remote sensing missions based on satellites, aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
